Review : Lumintop SD26 26650 (Awesome runtimes)(+discount available)

Nice review George. Well done.

Thanks guys ! :beer:

(Just saw the replies , i wasn’t receiving email updates for new replies for some reason :question: )

Very nice. I’m very interested. Please pm purchase code.

Many Thanks.

Thanks ! PM sent :wink:

Code please and thanks!

Color temperature/tint?

Only CW available .

But it isn’t a 6500k i would say , i would guess 5700K - 6000K (just by similar tints) .

Thanks for the review, very nice!

Thanks Gianni :slight_smile:

FYI , I still need to add some beamshots but weather is still bad here .

Great review!

What about mod this flashlight? You think it’s worth to replace with triple nichia?

Some people have changed led and/or driver for better throw , because it has an smooth and fairly big reflector for it’s size .

What optic with the 3 leds ? I don’t know if the cute-3 ss fits in there . Option B would be a quad with the 24mm Carclo optic.

Yes I think about a cute 3ss with a noctigon xp32 but it’s just my thoughts I’m not experienced with mods :smiley:

A Compact+26650+highCRI+longruntime+builtincharger would be perfect for me.

Installing a Nichia 219C high cri (with stock reflector) , and resistor mod (i remember someone doing that…) on the driver will make you happy for sure …

Thanks Giorgo,
Nice to come in here and jog my memory on what this light is supposed to do and how to make it do it. lol

I like the light, interesting style, nice fat well defined hot spot, don’t think I’ll be changing mine as it works really well in stock trim. The built in charging is a plus, makes it easy for a grab and go light. :wink:

Thanks Dale !

This light is the proof that complicated things aren’t always the best choice :stuck_out_tongue: . This light is simple and does everything as promised !

Somehow on my SD26 turbo mode has gone. When you click in cycle goes - Moonlight-Low-Mid-High-High. So instead of turbo it’s high mode twice and then again goes to moonlight. Has anybody an idea how to resolve it?

It seems that your battery doesn't stand the current for the turbo mode !...Try with a good one ( maybe a Liitokala 26650 ...) , and I'm sure that "turbo" will come back !...

The difference between high and turbo is most noticeable when you have a fully charged cell. When the battery depletes, the voltage reduces as well. This results in a reduced output of turbo, so eventually its output is about the same as high. I find it an unfortunate “feature” of a lot of single 18650 XM-L2/XP-L lights.

Exactly :+1:

Try charging your cell or trying a better quality one .

I had today here a job replacing the LED with 4000K, but bad news the original MCPCB is aluminum and not DTP

Why they put such a bad MCPCB in the light is strange
